Oilers vs Ducks Prediction
I’m on the Ducks here. This is just way too hefty of a price to be giving up with the Edmonton Oilers as far as I’m concerned with how inconsistent they’ve been. I think this is a price based on narrative and the name brand of the Edmonton Oilers that the Ducks are that far behind Edmonton, when in reality they aren’t. The Ducks are hot right now and are worth the look at this price.
